With modern technology comes a modern way of working. More teams around the world are adopting a hybrid business model, encouraging employees to work remotely when it fits their needs. Some companies have even shifted entirely to remote operations, slashing their overhead operational costs. However, without a space, how are employees meant to collaborate with each other? Traditionally, offices and conference rooms have been the go-to spot to brainstorm ideas, tackle tough challenges, and plan for the future. In today's work-from-home world, technology has stepped in to provide the opportunity for a new way to collaborate. Microsoft has driven innovation, creating new opportunities for collaboration in the digital space that bridges the gap between the home and the office.
Imagine you're in a meeting - potentially the most important meeting of the year. You've been preparing for days, creating engaging PowerPoints and generating Excel documents that perfectly illustrate your point. The only problem is that your flash drive is sitting at home on your kitchen counter. It's okay, we've all been there.
Thankfully, those days are in the past. Through the power of OneDrive cloud storage, your most important files are there when you need them the most. With intuitive mobile applications and desktop integrations, you're able to access the data that you need even when there's no computer in sight. With any computer or mobile device with an internet connection, you're instantly ready to use your entire family of files.
Teams is a comprehensive communication and collaboration hub, providing your entire organization with the ability to chat, call, schedule meetings, share files, and more from one single application. While it's a fantastic app on its own, the true power of Microsoft Teams is revealed when it meshes with and takes advantage of the power of the rest of the Microsoft family. Through compatibility with emails in Microsoft Outlook and projects created in Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneDrive, and more, Microsoft Teams provides you with the ultimate way to work with others each day.

Of course, mistakes happen in any project. No matter who was at fault, there is no cause for concern. Microsoft saves each change made to every document, allowing users to roll back to a previous version of there were any missteps along the way.
